Five P83 Dance performers have returned to Trinidad and Tobago with 11 trophies and a Golden Ticket from the All Dance Intercontinental World LATAM Championship in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, according to a press release published by the Trinidad Express. The championship ran from October 15 to 19, 2026. Adria Joseph, Gabrielle Busby, Layla Deane, Talia Young and Sienna Farah represented the team, whose dancers ranged in age from 13 to 21. Under the direction of Adrian Daniel, they performed 11 choreographies across Afro, dancehall, hip-hop, K-pop, commercial and traditional ethnic dance. The release reported eight first-place finishes and three second-place finishes. The group entries earned first place in Afro and dancehall, alongside second place in hip-hop. The Afro performance also received the Golden Ticket, described in the release as a distinction awarded at the championship for an outstanding score or a special judges’ choice. The release did not specify which of those grounds applied to the team’s award. In the individual results, Joseph placed first in dancehall and traditional ethnic dance. Deane won first place in dancehall and K-pop, while Young took first in hip-hop and second in dancehall. Busby placed second in commercial dance. Deane and Busby also combined for a first-place finish in the K-pop duet category, completing the team’s reported tally of 11 placements. The release credited the dancers’ preparation, Daniel’s guidance and support from their families for making the competition appearance possible. It also said P83 offers classes for teenagers and adults, including those interested in recreational dance, fitness and competition. Looking ahead, the release announced All Dance Trinidad and Tobago Nationals for May 21 to 23, 2027, at Queen’s Hall in Port of Spain. Led by National Director Dr Julius Brewster Jr., that event is set to offer a prize pool of up to US$6,000 and institutional awards, with registration closing on March 31, 2027.
